[tlug] Getting glxgears to display the number of frames per second

[Keith Bawden <isdj@example.com>]

G'day All,

At the meeting the other day I ran glxgears on one of the loan PCs and 
was a bit let down by the new behaviour. That is the number of frames 
per second are no longer displayed. That was on a machine with Mepis 
installed, I have confirmed the same behaviour on Debian Etch and Ubuntu 
Dapper Drake.

Anyway, for anyone interested here are two ways in which you can get the 
glxgears to play the way it used to:

glxgears -printfps

or the slightly more classier way

glxgears -iacknowledgethatthistoolisnotabenchmark

Regards, Keith
